Video and audio upload instructions

You can use a simple video camera and voice recorder such as those found on most smart phones.

For video:

1. You must ensure you are clearly visible and clearly audible in the video. Complete a test run first. If
your assessor is not able to clearly see or hear you – you will have to redo the task.
2. Introduce yourself and state the date and purpose of the video.
3. If your video includes another person, video them saying they agree to being videoed.
4. Your video should be a maximum of 5 minutes.
5. Consider stopping and starting the recording to capture the relevant items for assessment.

For audio:

1. You must ensure that you and the people featured in the audio recording can be clearly heard.
2. Introduce yourself and state the date a purpose of the video.
3. Introduce all of the people you will be recording and ask them to verbally agree to take part.

Submitting your video and audio


Your video files will be a large size and too big to upload straight to our online learning platform. Use one of
the following options to submit your video evidence.

Upload your video files to a video hosting site such as YouTube, Vimeo or file sharing sites such as Dropbox
and Google Drive. These cloud-based file sharing sites are also the appropriate place to upload your audio
recordings.

Provide a document in the TAFE Digital Campus upload area that contains the URL location and any
password protection for your files. Alternatively, you may have been provided with a template in which to
place the URL’s.

If your internet speed prevents you from uploading large files, you can post your files on a USB drive. You
will need to contact your facilitator for the best postal address. Provide a document in the assessment
upload area that provides details on when your video was posted.
